Setting The Capacitor Detection Method - Alcatel-Lucent OmniSwitch 6850E Series Hardware User's Manual

Configuring Power over Ethernet Parameters
changes the priority value of port 22 of the OmniSwitch slot 8 to the highest priority level of critical. Now
that the default value has been reconfigured, this port should be reserved for those PDs that are mission
critical for network operations.

Setting the Capacitor Detection Method

By default, the PowerDsine capacitor detection method is disabled. To enable it, use the
tor-detection command by entering lanpower capacitor-detection followed by the slot number of the
switch and enable.
For example, to enable the capacitor detection method on the switch with slot number 2, enter:
-> lanpower capacitor-detection 2 enable
To disable it, use the
tion followed by the slot number and disable.
For example, to disable the capacitor detection method on slot number 2, enter:
-> lanpower capacitor-detection 2 disable
Note. The capacitive detection method should only be enabled to support legacy IP phones. This feature is
not compatible with IEEE specifications. Please contact your Alcatel-Lucent sales engineer or Customer
Support representative to find out which Alcatel-Lucent IP phones models need capacitive detection
enabled.
